Why "Toughing It Out" on a Bad
Job is a Bad Idea!
Let me take you, the reader of this
article, to find out why "toughing" it
doesn't work, unless......
1. You recognize that this is a great
opportunity to know yourself at your
best by keeping a journal; assessing
your transferable skills; networking with
your peers and others; and having a
positive attitude no matter what.
2. You save money for your great
getaway! You spend a moderate amount
to get some new clothes; new places to
visit in your immediate neighborhood, maybe
a new restaurant; and books to help you
map out your future.
3. Volunteer for little, extra tasks at your
bad job, speak well of all, get to know your
co-workers. If they are part of the "bad
job", join in anyway, any way you can.
4. Plan, plan, plan, even in they don't
always work. Plan C might be the one!
5. Plan a “going, going, gone” party with
a time line.
6. Network in the best sense in giving to
others who will remember you. Get their
names & addresses. Ask for advice for
your future.
7. Don’t be bullied. You are splendid,
didn’t you know that?
